The Never Ending Story:College Readiness Christi Morgan English Professor/TSI Coordinator CADE 2018
Coastal Bend College Snapshot • Multiple Campus Institution comprised of 4 sites • Service Area over 9,400 square miles (20.8 people per square mile) • 68% of students enter as underprepared in one or more area • 54% of enrollment dual credit/dual enrollment (serving 20 counties) CADE 2018
The Spark of Change: 2013 Prior to 2013: • Every IHE chose placement test; some liberty to placement scores • DevEd English and Reading taught separately (2 levels of each) • Very little acceleration Beginning Fall 2013: • Every Texas Institution utilized the same placement exam; prescriptive placement scores • DevEd English and Reading were combined: IRW (Integrated Reading and Writing- 2 levels) • Limited additional acceleration (prior to HB5 & HB2223) CADE 2018
Additional Change: 2013-2017 1. The beginnings of Mathways: Quantitative Reasoning, *Algebra, Statistics 2. HB5: districts must partner with at least one institution of higher education to develop and provide college preparatory courses in English language arts and math. Requires that the courses be designed for grade 12 students whose performance . . . indicates the student is not ready for college-ready coursework. 3. HB2223: requires that certain percentage of underprepared students enrolled in DevEd be reported as enrolled in a co-requisite model, which allows the student to enroll in the entry-level college course but requires co-enrollment in a DevEd course/intervention designed to support the student’s successful completion of the college-level course 4. Lowered Writing cut score to 340 CADE 2018
